I have been to a few concerts, Paul Young, Status Quo, Brian Ferry, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Bryan Adams and others however last week we went to see... wait for it...

AIR SUPPLY!

They were brilliant - its amazing how many song lyrics you dont even realise you know until they start singing!! The whole audience were on their feet and singing - fantastic!!

I have been to alot of concerts and not that many of them have been dissapointing.
But the best by far was the chillies last july it was awesome,I have seen them before but that 1 i was front row and there was a great atmosphere in the crowd and i got a wave off Anthony Kiedis so it made my day.
Another good 1 was the Kooks in blackpool the crowd was good but they ended up doing an acoustic set as apparently parts of the ceiling were falling onto cannon and ball downstairs both support acts were good and in all a good concert.

Iggy Pop last year at the Big Day Out festival in Butlins, it was amazing! He was calling everyone to get up on stage to dance for the last couple of songs
The Smashing Pumpkins gig comes a close second though as it was the first gig I ever went to back in 1994 after which I was addicted!

Two top ones stick in my mind for sure, saw Michael Jackson at Wembley and got lifted with the crowd to the front...not by choice as they were all walking and pushing forward but i still got to the front lol.

But even better was Queens last one, at Knebworth Park, that man had energy like a duracell bunny and was entertaining the whole way through what an icon.

Want to see U2
I will also admit to seeing the osmonds, bay city rollers, dr hook but best leave the rest...lol but all gigs are cool live.

I saw the Jam on their farewell tour in London, and they were excellent. Another great gig was at a tiny blues club where I saw a guy called Bobby Mack and his band, and they played fantastic texas blues in the SRV style.
I don't tend to go to many big gigs as I like to be able to see the band up close without having to rely on a giant screen to see what's going on.

I've never been to a pop concert/gig as yet. I did go to a string quartet at the chapel with me mum when I was about 10, that was boring.

I have been to the rocky horror show which is in the same vein, I enjoyed that, even though my fancy dress wasn't outlandish enough, my excuse is I din't know what to expect.

I'm going to see a live act with some Fish fairly soon, I'll fill you in after.

Have to say Kaiser Chiefs that I went to last Saturday. A big thank you to Lesley who treated me to the most entertaining concert ever. Well done to the Kaisers to get a near 40 year old moshing again (nearly)

KINGS OF LEON!! Wowsers, they rocked the place!

Although they are only second, Linkin Park still at Number 1 by a million miles!

Been to a few gigs in the last 12months, Primal Scream, Happy Mondays, Arctic Monkeys, recently saw Babyshambles in Birmingham as well.

The best band I ever saw was The Prodigy at a Tribal Gathering festival in Oxfordshire in either 1994 or 1995. Excellent, Keith came on inside a bubble and they were great, the crowd was well buzzin but I would say a good percentage of them were E'd up?.
